The phaaaaantom of the opera is there…inside my mind (cue epic organ music).

Usually I avoid drawing minor characters since I don’t think anyone will care, but how could I resist such a dramatic shot? I’m not sure that a molded shimmering mask is historically accurate, but I thought it would be fun to draw. Also, this guy is a bit girly looking, which probably means he has a cult following. This one’s for you, cult following!

Just finished Answer Me 1997. I was worried it would be too much like the original, and although it had its similarities (identical parents for example) I can't really complain since it's certainly a winning formula. I did find the original more satisfying and mysterious, but I wish more networks were producing dramas so charming and well-grounded. I've had enough slow-motion one-sided hugs to last me a lifetime. Watching couples act like real people is a lot more satisfying!
